One of the questions I get most often about the Festival is “What booths are your favorite?” As you know, I think it’s pretty important to plan what booths you want to visit the most (there’s only so much money, time, and stomach space, after all), so I thought it would be fun to share my favorites!

Below are few of my choices for not-to-be-missed booths, and I’d love to hear yours in the comments below!

The first booth I will visit will be the cheese booth and then the dessert booth. After those two I’m up for any other tasting my travel companions want to try. I also can’t wait to try the vegan booth this year.

I absolutely love the france booth, it will NOT be missed. The escargot in the little baugettes are to die for and the chocolate creme brulee is divine!! I will probably stopping there more than once during the F&WF.

It’s like choosing your favorite child. I guess if forced I’d go with South Korea. I love both offerings there: the lettuce wrap and bean pancake. I think Morocco is second, and third is Greece for the Spanakopita. Honorable mentions to France, Argentina, and Australia.

My favorite from last year, Bunny Chow, has left the menu at South Africa. My favorite from 2 years ago, Barramundi, is no longer on the menu at Australia. So watch this space for my favorite from this year so you can have it one last time before it’s gone forever!

(Also, my favorite child is Suzy. Do you hear that, David? SUZY! …now get a job.)

My favorite stops are New Zealand and Hawaii. Hawaii especially because they have one of my absolute favorite beers: Kona Pipeline Porter. But both of those booths have so many delicious options on the menu that I find it hard to not get one of everything.

My must haves include Hawaii’s tuna poke, Canada’s chicken chipotle sausage, Belgium’s steamed mussels, Morocco’s baklava, and Scandinavia’s Swedish meatballs. And I’m looking forward to trying Florida’s white corn arepa with mangalitsa pork rilette and Germany’s roast bratwurst in a pretzel roll. Favorites from last year also include Caribbean’s jerk-spiced chicken drumstick, Australia’s shrimp on the barbie, and Mexico’s crispy shrimp taco. We have five meals planned around the festival booths, so we’ll get to try a lot more than just those choices.
